2017 Nissan Frontier SV 4.0L engine

2017 Nissan Frontier SV 4.0L engine. Good performance--oversized tires will be expensive when replaced. --industry trend is oversized tires with oversized rims. do not like a tire for a pickup that is more trendy than usable. vehicle has good space inside--room for 4. Bed is small--but extender for gate works nice.

Great vehicle!

I just bought my second preowned Frontier. I?ve owed Fords and Chevy trucks. Now I buy Nissan. Best ride. Best comfort. Best reliability. Best mid-sized truck IMHO!

Love my Fronty

Really nice truck. SL model. Good fuel mileage and performance for being new. Owned them before. Great trucks. Very reliable. Not all the issues like the new Tacoma and Colorado.

A great vehicle for the farm.

The Frontier has always served my needs well. I've owned more than seven of them. I would recommend it for comfort, convenience and dependability. I love the updates, i.e., back up cameras, improved radio performance and heated seats.

IMHO the best human + large dog vehicle available.

Bought the SV model (4-door,) 4wd, V6, used with 14k miles, from a major rental car company. The truck has excellent acceleration, and the front seats are comfy. Back seats fold flat to the back of the cab and by removing the storage compartments below them (easy by design,) a large dog can turn around in the space and stick their head out of either back window. My son likes the IPOD-IPHONE capability for his music and I use the Bluetooth for Android phone as well. Plenty of room in the bed for an extra large dog crate too, if you roll that way. Nice 4wd truck for thousands less! I have owned Toyotas for 15 yrs.

Most Dependable Truck I've Ever Owned

I feel safe and up to date in this truck in every aspect from taking my kids to school or working in the job site. Everywhere I need to go in any circumstances this truck excels in performance and in style.

Took it for a test drive

The frontier is a nice simple Mid size truck . Not everyone wants the latest hard to understand Trucks , we were looking for something simple for an older family member that has a good reliability rating , it doesn't get much simpler than a 2wd King cab Frontier , It was new and had great rebates , He is happy with his new truck .

Love at first drive

The frontier felt like my truck from my first test drive. It was like new with only 10000 miles but not the price of a new truck. It has just the right amount of comfort without all the bells and whistles I don't need. I feel safe due to the FWD when needed. My dog loves the spacious cab! I love to garden and come spring the bed will be delivering endless loads of soil to my my yard.
